public class FastDateParser extends Object implements DateParser, Serializable
FastDateParser is a fast and thread-safe version of
SimpleDateFormat.
This class can be used as a direct replacement for
SimpleDateFormat in most parsing situations.
This class is especially useful in multi-threaded server environments.
SimpleDateFormat is not thread-safe in any JDK version,
nor will it be as Sun has closed the
bug/RFE.
Only parsing is supported, but all patterns are compatible with SimpleDateFormat.
Timing tests indicate this class is as about as fast as SimpleDateFormat in single thread applications and about 25% faster in multi-thread applications.
